Get your taxes done using TurboTax

I’m not clear on how to update my W-4. I want my employer to remove the maximum amount of tax from my pay so I don’t have to pay taxes when I file. And I can get a refund. Up until this change with the W-4, it meant putting zero but now that doesn’t even work. So what should I put under federal and state? My employer’s form only asks for Qualifying dependent amount USD under Fed. And # of allowances under State.  Is $4000 for dependents correct? What is the difference between putting 0,1, or 2 for Total # of allowances?  I appreciate your input.
